Interesting take on the theme! I included it in my Virtual Pet Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out. :)

I really liked the art and music. Love the idea for animal rescue too. Felt desperate trying to save the dog, really glad friendly fire not a thing because I kicked zombies near the dog lol.

Wasn't sure what would cause the nuclear rating to go up, guessing if touched the radiation zones or if take too long to rescue the animals like a timer.

Developer

Yeah if you get close to the radioactive props or go outside of the zone you get the radiation higher and eventually die.

I'm happy that you enjoyed playing our game! 

Thanks !

Really well made game and unique concept! I like that you included different weapons and mutant animals to rescue so there is variety in the gameplay, great job! :D 

Developer

Yeah we tried to do as much variation  as possible, thanks for your review !

i liked the sounds a lot, and the lighting effect for different times of day was really neat! i loved the designs of the pets, but maybe some more interactivity with them would be nice? 

Developer(+1)

For sure it would be better to have a bit more interactivity but yeah, thanks for your review

Love the world, pixel art is just so charming! Wish my murder to pet rescue ratio was higher on the rescue side, but what can you do in a nuclear fallout apocalypse.

Thank you ! The art was inspired by a mixture of pixel  and AAA titles, Yeah we wanted to add a little realism there… but maybe a little too real aha

I really like the art and sound! It certainly hits the "In the Zone" sercet theme, but I'm not sure it's hitting the virtual pet theme, perhaps some kind of caretaking for rescued pets could be implemented?

Developer

Indeed could have a bit more caretaking but it wasn't on the concept that we agreed on, thanks for your review !

Where can I get one of those two-headed turtle-chickens in real life? Nice little world you built :)

Developer

It was 2 weeks of fun building this one :D, thanks !
